Hello,
By default, Microsoft sqlserver has a pagesize of 8k. Is it possible to change this default pagesize? If yes how can I change it after SQlserver is installed. What are some of the factors to take in to consideration before changing it? For example the operating system etc.
Regards,
Albert.
We have received a DB from one of our customer.
We want to change the DB and tables (and all objects) owner to sa
How can we do that ?
Thanks
Where can i change the date stored internally to SQL Server. It is this value which is displayed when we execute getdate() function. But, Changing the system date doesn't change the result of getdate() function. I want to get a different value for getdate(). Is it possible ?

where he used a BCP shell script to pass outfile specs.
I'm using SQL query writer ODBCview and would like to view the data before loading it into a file, but I'm getting a ?crunch? error.
In other languages you can :
set linesize X (518, in my case)
set space 0
set newpage 0
set pagesize 0
set heading off etc for a clean flat file load.
I'm getting errors using the set command; I think it may be a SQL/Plus function, not native to SQL.
Are there similar functions for setting page specs? Thank you guys so
very much. I'm a noob (4 days old at this now!) and am in awe of the support you provide.

Hi
I am trying to switch between oracle and sqlserver databases to read the source data. I have used a parameter file to specify the connection parameters. For SQLserver the connection looks like in the file as below:

I created a report with RS in VS.NEt and set the width and height to 8.5in by 11in from the property window. When I designed it , everything fit on one page nice and neat.
When printed it prints on two pages and the font size comes out much larger than expected. The whole document seems to have been blown up bigger and the right side of the document has been cut off. Why is this? Do I need to configure vs.net to print????
Am I missing some setting somewhere?
Other documents print out fine on this printer, so it is not the printer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you
this seems small but if I can't get the report to print out right then..........
We have a static class that makes an HTTPWebRequest to get XML data from one of our vendors. We use this as input to a stored proc in SQLServer2005. When I compile this class and call it from a console application in visual studio it executes in milliseconds, everytime. When I compile it, create the assembly and clr function and execute it in SQLServer, it takes around 14 seconds to execute the first time, then on subsequent requests it is again really fast, until I wait for 10 seconds and re-execute, once again it is slow the first time and then fast on subsequent requests. We do not see this behavior when executing outside SQLServer. Makes me think that some sort of authentication is perhaps taking place the first time the function is run in SQLServer? I have no idea how to debug this further. Anyone seen this before or have any ideas?
Here is the class:
Code Snippet
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Net;
using System.IO;
namespace Predict.Services
{
public static class Foo
{
public static string GetIntradayQuote(string symbol)
{
string returnQuote = "";
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)(WebRequest.Create("http://data.predict.com/predictws/detailed_quote.html?syms=" + symbol + "&fields=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,28,30"));
request.Timeout = 1000;
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)(request.GetResponse());
StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());
returnQuote = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
streamReader.Close();
response.Close();
return returnQuote;
}
}
}
When I run call it from a console app it is fine.
I compile it into a dll and then create the assembly and function as follows:
Code Snippet
drop function fnTestGetIntradayQuoteXML_SJS
go
drop assembly TestGetIntradayQuoteXML_SJS
go
create ASSEMBLY TestGetIntradayQuoteXML_SJS from 'c:DataBackupsCLRLibrariesTestGetIntradayQuote_SJS.dll' WITH PERMISSION_SET = EXTERNAL_ACCESS
go
CREATE FUNCTION fnTestGetIntradayQuoteXML_SJS(@SymbolList nvarchar(max)) RETURNS nvarchar(max) AS EXTERNAL NAME TestGetIntradayQuoteXML_SJS.[Predict.Services.Foo].GetIntraDayQuote
go
declare @testing nvarchar(max)
set @testing = dbo.fnTestGetIntradayQuoteXML_SJS('goog')
print @testing
When I execute the function as above, again, really slow the first time, then fast on subsequent calls. Could there be something wrong with the code, or some headers that need to be set differently to operate from the CLR in SQLServer?

Skipper.
Hi experts;
I have a problem with unicode character 0x2300
I created this table
create table testunicode (Bez nchar(128))
Insert Data
insert into testunicode (Bez)values('Œ€„¢')
with 2 Unicode characters
Œ€ = 0x2300
„¢ = 0x2122
Selecting the data
select Bez from testunicode
I see
"?„¢"
„¢ = 0x2122 is ok but instead of 0x2300 there is 0x3f
When I modify the insert statement like that ( 8960 = 0x2300 )
insert into testunicode (Bez)values(NCHAR(8960)+'„¢')
and select again voila i see
"Œ€„¢"
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks
I am trying to 'load' a copy of a SQLServer 2000 database to SQLServer 2005 Express (on another host). The copy was provided by someone else - it came to me as a MDF file only, no LDF file.
I have tried to Attach the database and it fails with a failure to load the LDF. Is there any way to bypass this issue without the LDF or do I have to have that?
The provider of the database says I can create a new database and just point to the MDF as the data source but I can't seem to find a way to do that? I am using SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Thanks!!
I'm chasing after a documetn that was available on one of the Microsoftwebsites that was titled somethign like "MS SQL Server Best Practices"and detailed a nyumber of best practices about securing the server.Included in this was revoking public access to the system tableobjects.Can someone post the URL where I can pick this up, or drop me a note oncontacting them for a copy of the document?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an app that uses a sqlserver 2000 jdbc driver to connect to a sqlserver 2000.
Is it possible to do a direct replacement of sqlserver 2000 with sqlserver 2005 express just by reconfiguring the app to point to the express? The app would still be using the sqlserver 2000 jdbc driver to try and make the connection.
If that is a possibility, what can be some differences in the configuration? Previously with 2000 the config information I entered is:
server name: "machinename"( or ip). I've also tried "machiname/SQLEXPRESS"
DB name: name of db instance
port: 1433(default)
user and pass.
My attempts so far results in
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Error establishing socket."
and
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Unable to connect. Invalid URL."
Hello,
I have an SQLServer Mobile database, and I would like to know if there is a way to upgrade it to SQLServer 2005 (.mdf) database. My database has no records in it, just the structure (tables etc). What I am actually asking is if I can create automatically a new SQLServer 2005 Database with the same structure as my existin SQLSErver Mobile database
Thanks in advance,

Hello people.
I am in the process of planning a server upgrade to sql2005 x64.
I created 2 linked servers: one to a SQL2000 sp4 server and one to a SQL7.0 SP3.
I have the following error when I query the linked servers.
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IVDM2K" returned message "Unspecified error".
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IVDM2K" returned message "The stored procedure required to complete this operation could not be found on the server. Please contact your system administrator.".
Msg 7311, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot obtain the schema rowset "DBSCHEMA_TABLES_INFO" for OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IVDM2K". The provider supports the interface, but returns a failure code when it is used.
I am aware of KB 906954.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;906954
I applied the instcat.sql on the SQL2000SP4 server and my linked server issues for that one are gone.
However, I ran the instcat.sql script on the SQL7.0 sp3 server and the linked server is still giving me an issue.
Can someone help me find a solution to this?
Regarding KB935356, is there a "post" service pack 2 update for SQLServer Express?
Thanks.

Hi Friends,
Can some please let me know the differences between sqlserver 2000 and sqlserver 7.0
Hi,
I am new to SQL Server 2005. I tried connecting to my local machine by using my machine name as Server name and then tried running the following query:
SELECT * FROM SYS.Objects. It gives me following error:
Invalid object name 'sys.objects'.
Whereas, if I connect to my local machine using mahcinenameSQLEXPRESS, then the above mentioned query runs fine.
Why is this difference? What is the difference when I login in these 2 different ways.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

A college forgot to change the data root when installing a developer server. My question is can this be changed whitout reinstalling the server and restoring the developer databases.
I found sqldataroot under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftMSSQLServerSetu pSQLDataRoot]
If I stop the sql server and change this value and move the *.mdb and *.ldf files. Would I risk currupting the databases and do I need to change something else? For example would changeing this value change the default path for backupdevices?
I have a problem where our developers would like to change the passwords of the SQL Logins without knowing the users old password.
The only way they can use the below syntax is that they must be a member of the SYSAdmin Server Role.
sp_password NULL, 'newpassword',Max
I need a way to allow them to change the passwords without making a user a member of the SYSAdmin Server Role.
Any thoughts would be greatly apprecitated. Thanks in advance.

I`m running SQL 6.5 with standard security. We`re running NT 4.0. I am a member of the NT Admin group - which, of course, has sa privileges in SQL Server. I changed the sa password (via Enterpise Manager on my client machine); and it worked. I tested the password change by connecting to ISQL/w - both on my client machine and at the server machine.
However, when I attempted to connect to the server via Enterprise Manager (SEM) - on my client machine - my login attempt failed. But at the server machine, I connected just fine.
Somehow, even though we`re using standard security, I`m getting locked out of SEM because of the new password. Changing the sa password back to what it had been resolved the problem; but the old password was only meant to be temporary.
Any suggestions or explanations?
Hi,
During SQL installation I left the SA password blank. Now when I try to change it, the event log fills up with the following errors:
Mesg 18456 : Login failed- User: sa.
I am using SQL database for SMS and I have a SMS service account.
The error type in event viewer is "Failure Audit".
I am stopping and starting SQL once changes are made. I am also registering server with "Use Trusted Connection". I have also tried with "Use Standard Security" and the SA account.
Can anyone tell me how to change my SA password without affecting my SMS service account?
Thanks,
Terry
Hi all,
I have a table that has integrity constraints in place and it is populated with the data. I need to rename one of the columns in the table. I am hesitant to use sp_rename procedure because when I used it before I get a warning message that says "changing any part of an object name could break scriptd and stored procedure." how big of a problem is it? Is there any other way to do it without hearting anything? Thanks.

I have looked thru the forum but have a couple of questions:
1) data base was created with case insensitive collation
2) all the tables were then create (72 tables) and by default got the CI collation on all columns
3) lots of data was added 2GB
4) discovered mistake and altered the database to have case sensitive collation
5)..... how to change all the collations for all the columns without doing them all manually
can i backup the database and change some settings and restore it?
export all the data, drop and recreate tables and import data?
????
We are building an inventory management system complete with BOM. It is important to track what employee is updating what tables. Currently all such tables have a Date field that is updated when a change is made, and an EmployeeID field which records the employee making the change. I am wondering if someone knows of a better way to track this information. Any suggestions?
